Number Of Ingredients 12

1 Tbsp instant coffee crystals (see note about coffee quality in recipe intro)
2 Tbsp cream
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup white granulated sugar
1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed
1 large egg
2 Tbsp kahlua (or other coffee liqueur)

1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup white chocolate chips (white baking morsels)

  • 3. In a medium size bowl, stir together the sifted flour, baking soda and salt. Slowly add the flour mixture to the creamy butter/sugar mixture, and mix just until well combined. Add the white chips and stir until well combined.
